PROFILING A POEM

‘rishi’ (latha ramakrishnan)

Abortion _
deformed child_
stillborn _
premature _
or a healthy baby?

What is a boy?
What is a girl?

Scanning is illegal.

Pre-natal, post-natal
Care is a must.

Depression, delusion
might, midway, happen….

Delivering a baby is surely
a rebirth

Indeed hard to bear 
the labour pain.

and, in the end
loss or gain?
The question remains….

A Word formless,
an indefinable mass,
floats within
as sperm
or
an embryo .
